Abstract:
The moral distress of nurses is an important ethical issue in nursing practice, especially in pediatric nursing, which is unique and specialized. It can lead to burnout and compassion fatigue, resulting in lower job engagement and job satisfaction, and higher turnover rates. In order to provide a comprehensive and timely understanding of the current state of moral distress of pediatric nurses and their influencing factors, this article reviews the current state of domestic and international research on the moral distress of pediatric nurses and the influencing factors. It showed that overseas research on the moral distress of pediatric nurses is more in-depth, while there was less research in China at present, and the research and attention on the moral distress of pediatric nurses in China was insufficient. The influencing factors mainly include three aspects: personal factors, organizational factors and external environment. The review provided a theoretical basis for implementing targeted interventions to prevent and mitigate moral distress among pediatric nurses and calls for nursing researchers, nursing educators, nursing managers and individuals in China to pay more attention to moral distress.
